So tomorrow is the big day. I’m getting married! My fiancé and I are so excited that our special day is finally upon us. One more day and we will be husband and wife. Awesome. I have been working so hard to put this event together that I feel like a factory worker! Especially this week. Everyday I have had something to make but today I finally get to be the bride and relax.
One thing I really enjoyed creating was the bouquets. I have a small wedding party so it was just mine and my maid of honor who needed one but it wasn’t a small task by any means. But I am happy they are done and they came out beautiful. I am in love! To send inspiration your way, I wanted to show you some floral arrangements I think are simply gorgeous. Hope they make you smile and inspire something wonderful for your wedding or event.
The next time we speak I will be a wife! Woohoo!!

There are so many things one has to think about and plan when getting married. Between the kind of event you will have to all the many details that are involved, you could seriously drive yourself crazy! Its great there are so many resources out there for information and inspiration but sometimes that could make it more difficult. Too many choices can be overwhelming.
Well, since I am a big fan of Etsy and have a shop on there myself, I wanted to write a post about their Weddings and Registry section. I swear, this is one of the best things to come along since Martha Stewart Weddings! If you love unique handmade goods and live an indie lifestyle, than Etsy is right up your alley. Not only can you find amazing and beautiful items and accessories, you will be supporting artists who love what they do instead of large companies who certainly don’t need it.
Etsy Weddings has everything organized to perfection. From paper goods and decor to dresses, rings and accessories, you will find it all here with ease. Everything you need in one place! Even outfits and accessories for your wedding party. Just when you thought that was enough, there are plenty of blogs, stories, advice and real weddings you can read about. This is the placce to be when planning a wedding.
The Etsy Registry is so easy to navigate. All you have to do is sign up and pick the items you love. How much fun! I wanted to share some of my favorite finds from each of the categories. I hope you can all get some inspiration from them or even purchase a few for yourself or a friend. Here we go!

Having a theme for your wedding, event or party can sometimes make it easier to decorate. But it’s also easy to go overboard. There is room to get creative though. Here are some great examples of themed events done right. I wish I was there to see them!
Movie time is a great idea. Everyone can get comfy and you can design the space with all sorts of props.
The renaissance theme is also nice for events that are a bit fancier. Look for lots of silver and metal items and romantic flowers for that touch of pretty.
For those who love camping and the great outdoors, an outside cookout or sleepover would work really well. Anything nature related can really be an adventure to put together. There are so many possibilities. From woodland and garden to the galaxy, they all could be so much fun!
Get crazy with the carnival theme and really show your guests a good time! Just imagine if you were able to rent out a theme park for the day. So cool.
Pick an era you love and go with it.
If you love to travel or met your fiancé while exploring the world, than a global theme would fit nicely.
If books are adored by you and your sweet love than a library theme will suit you both.
If you both are smarty pants or met in school, than why not a school theme? You can have so much fun with this one.
